Driver Training Class Has Special Project
A special project in Middletown High School summer driver training plots weekly traffic cases from The Journal. Dale Ridenour, assistant principal, leads the effort with four other instructors. Eighty students are enrolled this term. 60 expected next term. The program includes 50 hours classroom and 3 in-car instruction with 7.5 hours driving per student, plus observation. A drive stimulator aids 15 year olds to correct steering, while 16 year olds obtain broader practice with licenses. Cars are provided by local dealers, and instructors include Don Alstaetter, Dave Bonner, and Paul Walker. Talks from insurance, police, and state patrol officials supplement lessons, along with visits to traffic court and the school auto shop. The State Patrol assists with vision and reaction tests.

Surveyor Pictures Are Sharp
Pasadena AP reports Surveyor 1 resumed early today sending sharply focused pictures of lunar surroundings. The spacecraft's weak battery hinders plans, though JPL notes the battery functioned during brief sessions. Photos duplicated the moon's surface after the June 1 soft landing. more shots are planned if power holds. The cell, normally at 115 degrees, spiked to 140 degrees last Friday.
